Abstract (en)

[origin: US4617595A] In a light sensitive device having an interline transfer structure comprising a photosensitive matrix of N columns of M photosensitive points each photosensitive point of a single column is connected to a stage of a charge transfer shift register that transfers of the charges of the photosensitive points towards reading register perpendicular to the shift registers, the transfer for signal charges QS of the photosensitive points towards the corresponding stages of the shift registers being realized by superimposing a drive charge on the signal charges at the level of the photosensitive points at least sufficient for passing into the high inversion range at the beginning of the transfer. The instant process and apparatus are adapted to be used in the field of solid-state imagery.
